Chapter 965: Goddess Queen Monarch
It'd take some time until the dowry arrives in Heaven Suppression Fortress. After all, from the ancient universe's Jinwu Clan's sacred ground to Heaven Suppression Fortress was a very long way. It would take some time until everything is exposed.....
Zhong Yue comforted himself, I should be able to win against my wife now. I am not scared of her! Yes, not scared at all.... What's wrong with a man marrying a second wife? She can't scare me anymore....
However, in Zhong Yue's heart, he was still kind of worried; the time he spent with Yin Fanxuan was the longest compared to the other ladies and throughout this time, they had a lot of competition between each other and Zhong Yue end up being defeated every time.
To be frank, he was actually quite scared of his own wife.
He loved her and respected her, but he was scared of her.
Celestial Monarch Jin Wu left Zi Wei Heaven Court already. I must leave as soon as possible or I won't be able to get away!
Right away, Zhong Yue put his thoughts into action. He summoned his companions and met up with Yin Fukang. Throughout the way, the little boy Bi An had attracted a lot of attention with his little banner.
Fortunately, nothing happened throughout the way and just as they were about to reach the North Heaven Palace, vermillion birds screeched, mysterious beasts danced as court ladies holding colorful banners walked out while other heavenly ladies played songs with various instruments.
Then, from the ranks of the divine ladies, two carriages emerged with one being surrounded by Huaxu Celestial Race's divine ladies and the other surrounded by Wuming Clan's divine ladies. Among them was Wu Qingqing and another few male gods from the Wuming Clan.
Goddess Shen Hou and Goddess Queen Monarch's carriages?
Zhong Yue was surprised and stopped to give way to the carriages. This time, he constantly requested to meet with Goddess Shen Hou, but she avoided him every time, saying that she was visiting Goddess Queen Monarch. Zhong Yue was puzzled by this.
He never thought that he would run into the two goddesses' carriages.
The two carriages passed through the streets and suddenly, the dragons and vermillion birds pulling the carriage stopped and the carriages halted beside Zhong Yue. Then, Goddess Shen Hou moved the curtain aside, revealing her beautiful face. She smiled, "I heard that Mister Yi has been requesting my audience. Is there anything that I can help with?"
Zhong Yue bowed, "Goddess, there is a general serving me named Fu Li whose art was completely countered. His seventh spinal vertebrae became his weakness and as a human with the Huaxu Celestial Race's bloodline, I wish to seek an art that could help him cultivate the seventh spinal vertebrae."
"So that's how it is."
Goddess Shen Hou murmured, to which Zhong Yue bowed even lower.
Just as Goddess Shen Hou was considering it, a gentle and beautiful voice was heard from the other carriage saying, "Goddess Shen Hou, since Mister Yi asked so sincerely, why don't you just give him an art?"
The window on the other carriage was opened, exposing an unreasonably pretty face. It was the Goddess Queen Monarch that Zhong Yue saw during the banquet and she smiled, "After all, Mister Yi is a human, his ancestor is the Fuxi Celestial Race, relatives of your Huaxu Celestial Race. Besides, Huaxu Celestial Race's Nuwa are always married to the Fuxi Celestial Race and you too, once married someone of the Fuxi Celestial Race. Since you're all relatives, why don't you just give him?"
The Wuming Clan was a monarch race and the Diming Clan was another monarch race that was created by Goddess Queen Monarch and Heavenly Monarch Di Ming. Through Goddess Queen Monarch's fame and power, the Wuming Clan had expanded their territory by a great deal, pushing the other monarch races heavily and recruiting magnates from all the royal, celestial and demon races.
Goddess Shen Hou giggled, "Little Girl Feng Yan, you must be kidding me. We may have an ancient alliance with the Fuxi Celestial Race but it died along with the extinction of Fuxi Celestial Race. Whereas for the human, how can they possibly be compared to we Huaxu Celestial Race?"
Goddess Queen Monarch smiled, "Goddess, don't forget that there are 8,000 Fuxi Celestial Race under Mister Yi's lead and that rumors had it that he too, had unsealed the Fuxi bloodline in him. You are all relatives."
Goddess Shen Hou laughed coldly right away, "They are all nothing but fake Fuxi. Besides, Fuxi Celestial Race are rebels. Our Huaxu Celestial Race will no longer have any association with them, let alone this fake Fuxi! Mister Yi! I can not grant you what you request!"
With a disappointed expression, Zhong Yue stood down and stepped aside.
Goddess Queen Monarch giggled upon this scene, "How cold."
Goddess Shen Hou smiled coldly, "What's the point of begging me? Why don't they cultivate themselves? It's not like they don't have any arts that could achieve the same effect! Let's go!"
The carriages started moving again and disappeared into the streets.
Behind the carriages, somewhere among the groups, a voice sounded, "It's been a long time, Mister Yi."
Zhong Yue flinched slightly and when he turned around, he saw Feng Wuji nodding to him with a smile on top of a beast.
"Mister Wuji."
Zhong Yue replied with a smile, "May I ask why is Mister Wuji behind Goddess Queen Monarch's carriage?"
Feng Wuji did not answer and he said, "They said there are two Fuxi disguised as Goddess Queen Monarch's court ladies, sneaked into Bi Luo Palace and stole something. Under Goddess Queen Monarch's order, I came to investigate this matter. Have you seen the two Fuxi?"
"No. If Mister Wuji find these Fuxi, I'd be very interested to have a look at them."
Feng Wuji laughed happily and said, "This Fuxi is a disgusting one for disguising as a lady. Don't worry, Mister Yi. I will let you know once I catch them."
Zhong Yue nodded with a warm smile, "Great! Then I shall excuse myself now. See you, Mister Yi."
"Goodbye! Have a safe journey back!" replied Feng Wuji as he rode away.
After Feng Wuji disappeared from his vision, Zhong Yue inhaled deeply and said, "Let's go!"
While he looked expressionless on the outside, but his heart was experiencing great waves; Feng Wuji had been serving an existence that was trying to steal the throne by disrupting the order in this world, Bi Xie and Consort Tian Si were also serving the same lord. Under this lord's will, they had instigated chaos in the Zi Wei Galaxy, and started a never-ending war in the ancient universe that affected even the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds!
And now, judging by how it looked, Feng Wuji seemed to be a trusted servant of Goddess Queen Monarch. Could it be that Consort Tian Si, Bi Xie, and Feng Wuji were all serving Goddess Queen Monarch?
The monarch existence that wanted the throne, had Heavenly Monarch Di Ming isolated by his people was actually Goddess Queen Monarch?
Judging from Consort Tian Si's words, the one she is serving should be a man but Goddess Queen Monarch is obviously a lady so it shouldn't be her... Wait, disguising as a man is not difficult at all to monarch level existences. She is, after all, the Heavenly Monarch's wife, which makes it inappropriate for her to show herself to the public frequently. Disguising as a man, however, made this possible....
Though Zhong Yue also wanted the world to be in chaos, the ones that stirred chaos were Consort Tian Si, Bi Xie and if the person behind the scene was Goddess Queen Monarch, then she was the source of all chaos!
But if it's her, then she is really scary....
Zhong Yue shivered slightly as Goddess Queen Monarch was very like a monarch herself!
She was the eight contenders of the throne and with her identity as Goddess Queen Monarch, she definitely has a very scary power in the Heaven Court.
She had every condition to develop her own force and there might have been a lot among the officials in the Heaven Court that turned to her!
Her power in the Heaven Court was definitely not weaker than the Heavenly Monarch's!
A power even stronger than the Xian Tian Palace!
Zhong Yue took in a deep breath and thought, When the Heaven Court and Xian Tian Palace battled each other to death, both sides will be weakened greatly and who will be able to stop Goddess Queen Monarch? Besides, she seems to be trying to pull Goddess Shen Hou to her side and have the entire Huaxu Celestial Race to help her! How smart!
"Master."
Fu Li hesitated, "About my seventh spinal vertebrae...."
Zhong Yue smiled, "Goddess Shen Hou had already given me an answer. There are arts in the Fuxi heritage that could cultivate the seventh spinal vertebrae so we do not need the Huaxu Celestial Race's art anymore."
Fu Li's eyes lit up right away, only to be put down by Zhong Yue as he said, "But I do not have such arts with me. In order to cultivate your seventh spinal vertebrae to a point where there are no more weaknesses, you have to first cultivate the Fuxi Clan Monarch Da Yao's [Thirty-three Layers Heavens Da Yao Scripture], or Lady Monarch Yin Qiang's [Yin Qiang Demon Conqueror Mystic Scripture], which I do not have."
The disappointment in Fu Li intensified and Zhong Yue added, "But, perhaps I can get my hands onto these two arts."
He thought, Senior Martial Brother Feng should have dissected Feng Qingyu and extracted the 17 Fuxi Celestial Race's monarch level arts by now? I hope that he wouldn't be distracted by other things....
Ever since capturing him, Zhong Yue had handed over Feng Qingyu who has the 17 Fuxi Celestial Race's monarch level arts to Feng Xiaozhong for research purposes.
Among 17 Fuxi Celestial Race's monarch level arts, [Thirty-three Layers Heavens Da Yao Scripture] and [Yin Qiang Demon Conqueror Mystic Scripture] were one of them and they were both used against Zhong Yue; though not as perfect as Zhu Xie's and incomplete with the Six Paths Reincarnation, they should be sufficient to cover the weaknesses in Fu Li's seventh spinal vertebrae.
However, with the celestial dragon's Dao skeleton, the innate Dao language, and Chuo Long attracting Feng Xiaozhong's attention, he had spent only a limited time on Feng Qingyu.
Hence, it was unknown how many secrets were extracted out from Feng Qingyu.
Not long later, they arrived at the North Heaven Palace, where Yin Fanxuan, Yin Fukang, and their clan members were already waiting for them. The Yin Kang Clan had decided to travel on the water back to the State of Heavenly River, thus, they did not pass South Heaven Gate as they sailed straight into their territory.
Yin Fukang then saw the little boy Bi An who was carrying a banner with him and with a degree of surprise in him, he laughed, "This brat looks so arrogant!"
Bi An rolled his eyes on this comment and he warned, "Don't come close to me!"
Yin Fukang then smirked as he walked towards Bi An, "Then I have to walk closer to you if you said so...."
"Father, please keep your distance!" shouted Yin Fanxuan right away.
Yin Fukang stopped hurriedly and the confused old man thought, is something wrong with it? Bah, if daughter said so, then I will stay away....
They then arrived at Heavenly Ship Dock, where their fleet of ships docked, boarded the ships and the fleet departed.
This journey will not be a safe journey.
Zhong Yue thought with a gloomy expression as the fleet sailed on the Heavenly River.
